The maximum increase in the risks of serious bleeding and serious infection that the mean respondent was willing to accept in exchange for the described benefits of a wearable dialysis device (over in-center hemodialysis) varied by the dialysis modality type of the respondent. Mean threshold estimates overall and by current dialysis modality type for serious bleeding (A) and serious infection are displayed (B). Point estimates show mean threshold rates or MAR above baseline that were estimated using interval regressions. Upper and lower bars indicate 95% CIs. CI, confidence interval.
